Klaviyo is seeking an AI Solutions Architect to accelerate how our Global Services organization leverages AI to operate smarter and deliver more impact.
This role sits at the intersection of applied AI, solutions architecture, and internal enablement. We're looking for a strong technical problem solver who can quickly turn business challenges into practical AI solutions while collaborating across technical and non-technical teams.
You'll build AI-powered solutions that solve both creative and operational challenges. Your work will span accelerating content creation, enabling smarter learning experiences, connecting internal data sources, and automating workflows that improve efficiency and decision-making.
You'll also help teams use tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and Glean more effectively by building skills, prompts, and AI workflows that are reliable, reusable, and aligned to real business needs. As solutions grow in complexity, you'll help facilitate the evolution of workflows and prototypes into production-grade systems, working closely with Klaviyo's centralized AI engineering team and leveraging their support to scale larger, cross-functional initiatives.
This role sits within the Strategy & Operations team and serves as connective tissue across the broader Services organization, helping identify high-impact opportunities, accelerate experimentation, and scale successful AI solutions across the business.

- Design and connect AI systems using APIs, MCPs, automation platforms, and internal data sources to create intelligent, end-to-end workflows.
- Understand how to integrate AI solutions with existing systems, collaborating with engineering teams when production-grade implementations are needed.
- Develop effective prompts, skills, agents, and retrieval workflows that improve the quality, reliability, and usefulness of AI-generated outputs.
- Evaluate and iterate on AI solutions using user feedback, business outcomes, and emerging best practices to drive adoption and impact.
Enablement & AI Literacy
- Create clear documentation, implementation guides, and best practices that enable teams to effectively build and adopt AI solutions.
- Lead enablement sessions, workshops, and office hours to grow AI fluency and help teams build effective prompts, skills, agents, and workflows.
- Stay current on emerging AI capabilities, tools, and best practices
